Crunchy or soft, who doesn’t love a taco?
Not to mention a quick way to get dinner on the table. A taco bar is a fun way for kids to explore with different vegetables, beans, and cheese and build their own taco.
My secret ingredient is to use roasted mushrooms and add them to the meat. I love the flavor and its a great way to eat more plants! Use at least 16 ounces of baby Bella mushrooms cut uniformly, tossed in olive oil, salt and pepper and roast at 400 degrees. Turn every 5 minutes for 20 minutes. When cooled, put in a mini chop and pulse until the mushrooms look like the ground meat.
Add the mushrooms to browned meat of your choice with some taco spices.
Easy taco spice mix
Approximately 1 Tbsp chili powder
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp cumin
1/2 tsp paprika
1/2 tsp onion powder
Salt and pepper to taste
With the addition of some refried black beans, angel hair cabbage, tomatoes and avocado, These tacos are over half plants!
The addition of refried beans helps everything stay in place!
Enjoy!
Happy Tuesday!
